Roger Waters Bass Guitar Auction

Roger Waters' bass guitar was put up for sale, in a charity auction. Roger gave the guitar to the sponsor of his tour after the gig in Warsaw, Poland. The auction is for a foundation which buys medical equipment for the hospitals in that country.

The bidding reached 42100.00 zl (about 11000 euros). The auction finished yesterday at midday CET, and there are some great pictures of the bass on the auction website.

11,000.00 EUR (Euro) = 11,916.73 USD

1 EUR = 1.08334 USD 1 USD = 0.923072 EUR

Almost US$1,000 more than EU11,000 which rate is a tad more than "very similar". Americans.
